      Unforgettable Snorkeling Adventure with Sea Turtles and Vibrant Marine Life!
      We had an amazing time snorkeling with sea turtles! We saw a few turtles up close, along with tons of beautiful fish, including Nemo! The coral reefs were breathtaking and full of vibrant life. Our guide was incredible—very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. They explained everything thoroughly, making us feel comfortable and confident in the water. On top of that, they took some incredible photos to capture the experience. Highly recommend this adventure for anyone looking for a memorable snorkeling trip!

      Title: Incredible Snorkeling Experience with Mashi-San
      Our snorkeling trip with Mashi San was absolutely amazing! He’s incredibly friendly and made everyone in our small group of 5-6 people feel at ease, whether we were experienced snorkelers or beginners. He gave clear instructions and shared fun facts about marine life, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The weather was perfect—sunny with calm, clear waters. We saw vibrant coral reefs and so many colorful fish. Mashi San guided us through the best spots and even took some great underwater photos for us. While we didn’t spot any sea turtles this time, the adventure was still unforgettable. The small group size made the experience feel personal and relaxed, and Mashi’s passion for the ocean really shone through. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, engaging, and well-organized snorkeling experience. Thank you, Mashi San, for a day we’ll always remember!

      boring.
      I have to admit, this was a pretty boring experience! If you literally can't swim, then this is the trip for you. If you can swim, having to wear a lifejacket and staying close to your tour guide the entire trip is tedious. The SUP boarding/kayaking is also repetitive and dull as you just stay inside a very small area and see very little.

      A MUST DO!
      Amazing experience! I highly recommend this tour if you are English speaking and without a vehicle. All the guides speak great English and drove us to/from the hotel. The best day we have had in Miyako!

      Promise kept and more thanks to a wonderful guide
      We chose Miyakojima in the hope of seeing sea turtles and to go snorkeling. We opted for MIYAKO ADVENTURE PiPi thanks to the many positive reviews on Tripadvisor. The positive recommendations are well deserved! Our guide Iigo spoke English, took care of everyone in the group, frequently asking if everyone was okay. Not only did we see 2 turtles but thanks to his GoPro, and sending the photos/videos, we will return with a beautiful memory of this adventure. I also want to thank Igo and his very good recommendations for restaurants as well as beaches with snorkeling equipment for rent. Arigatô gozaimashita!

      Great short but effective snorkeling tour with super nice guide!
      Our guide was Yuri and he was amazing! Very funny, great English and a great guide who took us to see clownfish, anemone, sea turtles and more! He took many photos of us with very cool framing (e.g. photos where he blew a ring of air in the water and had us in the middle of the ring and photos with the turtles and clownfish). Overall an amazing, albeit a bit short, experience! Would love to go again with Yuri, just wish we could have him for a longer time :)

      Snorkel with the fish and turtles!
      My guide was Yuuri - he was great, very patient and helpful. It was my first time snorkeling, and because of the storm in the morning, all the people in my group cancelled, so I was alone and Yuuri was my personal guide! The weather conditions ended up being perfect, and we even got to see two sea turtles! Really enjoyed this and would recommend it to everyone :)

      Discover tropical jungle creatures by night!
      My guide was Shintaro - he was great! We found so many creatures, and he was pretty fearless going into the brush to look for them and get photos for us. I can definitely recommend it, but maybe not for those that fear large spiders :D

      Amazing sea turtle snorkeling session
      Yuuri was an amazing guide and we had such a great time. The water was so clear and we were able to see so many fish and colorful corals. Yuuri went above and beyond to take good photos of us. We were excited to be able to see the sea turtle! Highly recommend.

      Amazing tour
      It was my first time on Miyako Island, and I joined this tour on my last day here. I was amazed by all the marine life and finally saw a sea turtle. The kayaking tour was so fun! As the only Taiwanese tourist, I was paired with my coach. He was very considerate and kind. Even though I couldn’t speak or understand Japanese, he did his best to guide me and provide information about the tour. Highly recommended for anyone interested in this outdoor adventure! By the way, the pumpkin cave was so much fun! 這是我第一次來到宮古島,也是我最後一天參加的這個旅遊行程。我對所有的海洋生物感到驚嘆,終於看到了海龜。划獨木舟的行程非常有趣!作為唯一的台灣遊客,我和我的教練配對。他非常體貼和友善。雖然我不會說也聽不懂日語,但他盡力為我提供行程的相關資訊。強烈推薦給對戶外冒險感興趣的朋友!順便說一下,南瓜洞穴真的很好玩!

      Pumpkin Limestone Caving Is Recommended!!
      Pumpkin Limestone Caving is very impressed! We met two sea turtles! The guide said it’s rare to see two sea turtle! The guide is very friendly and nice! The reason why we want to give a five-star review is because they just sent an email with the itinerary notification the day before, but because we were busy that day, we couldn't reply in time. When I saw the message, they said they were going to cancel my trip, but obviously I I have already paid the deposit, and it was resolved smoothly in the end, but the process made me not very happy. Therefore, I hope that the notice before departure can be sent two or three days in advance.

    We could see a turtle and clown fish during the snorkeling! The guide could speak both Japanese and English and his English was good! He was friendly to my little son. We were really happy!

    Had the opportunity of a last-minute booking (reached out at 5am in the morning - jet lagged - and everything came together + met up with our tour guide, Kaho, by 11:30am. Meeting spot was in the P2 parking lot (behind and away from the food court) of Shigira Beach; this P2 lot provides easy walking access to the snorkeling area. Do not confuse this with the Shigira Hotel beach whichhas an island a few hundred feet out from shore.
    Kaho spoke English well for someone who just learned off of the internet. She provided life vest, snorkel gear, water shoes, and fins - we were well-equipped for some snorkeling. They have a red flotation device in case one needs to take a break (but my wife and I just paddled the entire time…great equipment).
    We spotted various forms of algae, fish, coral, and even a baby turtle! The waters were cool but not freezing, and quite frankly super enjoyable in the July heat. One can try to snorkel here for free, but good luck finding the sea turtle!
    Would do so again, this company is accommodating and accommodating for English speakers.

    It was my first time snorkeling, but they helped me with everything from how to put on a wetsuit to how to do it all. Thank you.

    The sea in Miyakojima was really clear and beautiful.

    I'm thrilled to have my first snorkeling experience in the sea of Miyakojima.

    The guide took a lot of photos underwater and sent them to me separately.

    I'm glad I was able to keep the photos as a precious memory. Thank you.

    I also met a small sea turtle just before the end.

    It was cute to see it eating seaweed without running away even when I got close, probably because it was used to people.

    I was able to take a photo with it.

    I was able to enjoy it thanks to the guide's service-oriented guidance. Thank you.

    This time I snorkeled with foreigners, but the guide was fluent in English, so I think it's a course that many people can enjoy.
